Performance review

Performance review

Performance for our All-Cap sustainability strategies

Our investment philosophy focuses on delivering strong absolute returns over cycles.

This focus means that we define risk as the loss of clients’ capital rather than in terms of deviation from any benchmark index. As a result, our performance is likely to lag steeply rising markets, but deliver better results in falling markets. This approach has served clients well over time and over cycles.

Below is the performance for our All-Cap sustainability strategies.

Composite outperformance since launch (USD net of fees)

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.

Source for composite performance: Stewart Investors as at March 31, 2025. Composite performance is shown on a net of fees basis. Net performance figures are calculated by subtracting a model annual management fee (see tables above) from the gross performance figures. No other expenses or costs have been taken into account when calculating the net performance. This information is provided for illustrative purposes to demonstrate Stewart Investors’ activity within the strategy for the periods shown. It is not a recommendation or solicitation to purchase or invest in any fund. Differences between fund or client-specific constraints and those of a similarly managed mandate would affect results. Source for benchmarks: FactSet, total returns, gross of tax.
